And now after 9 months of ownership and countless hours of LLM inference performance tuning, it's suddenly been kicked into higher gear.
Fans are a lot louder too.

Credit goes to Claude btw. It pulled the kernel firmware binary apart, found the location of the perfomance toggle and then wrote a oneliner to read it at runtime: ``` root@pve:~# python3 -c 'import mmap,os;m=mmap.mmap(os.open("/dev/mem",os.O_RDONLY),4096,mmap.MAP_SHARED,mmap.PROT_READ,offset=0xFEC40000);print({0:"Balanced 85W",1:"Performance 120W",2:"Quiet 55W"}.get(m[0x431],m[0x431]))' Balanced 85W ```
